The entire course is online. In addition to the online learning experience, you can download and print all of your materials, including your client worksheets and planning tools.

Don’t worry if you don’t have a printer, we can send you your course materials by post for an additional fee. Whereas you can enrol online and gain instant access, please allow for a couple of days for your posted course materials to arrive.

No, there are no fixed deadlines and you can take as long as you need to complete it.

Most providers restrict access after 12 months, but with us, there isn't a set time in which you need to start or complete your course. You can complete it in a few weeks or in a couple of years, at your own pace – plus you have lifetime access to your course systems and materials, including all future updates.

Having said that, we suggest your redeem your wowcher code as soon as you purchase it - and then start your course lessons whenever you are ready later on.

No, there are no fixed deadlines. Our programme allows you to be 100% in control of your own time. In other words, you are in charge of your own study agenda. This puts you in the driving seat and increases the enjoyment of your learning experience.

What's more, you have lifetime access to your course, which means that it is yours forever to keep, including all future updates!

You can complete your course whenever you want. In a few short weeks or in a couple of years. That’s the great advantage of our programme! For the majority of our students the course can take up to 12 months to complete. But you can do it as quickly or slowly as you wish.

Our suggestion is that you cover one module per week. Given that the course has 9 modules, this means that in 9 weeks (or about 3 months) you could be entitled to your Sports and Exercise Nutritional Advisor certification!

It depends on how quickly you would like to complete the qualification. The total amount of hours to complete the course is approximately 90. So you can study for as many hours per week as your work and social life allows. If you aim to complete one module per week, for instance, you can achieve this by studying one hour or so every day.

We also provide you with instructions on how to use each of these materials with your clients.

No. Instead, you are be presented with practical self-assignments and online multiple choice theory tests. This way you won't feel stuck over the composition and marking of written tasks. What's more, your study time is reduced so you can concentrate on what really matters: applying your newly acquired knowledge to real life situations.

At the end of each module, there is a multiple choice quiz based on the readings and lecture materials. The purpose of the quizzes is to enhance your retention of the material. You are permitted to refer to lecture slides and other notes during the quizzes. There is no time limit and you have an unlimited number of attempts to take the quiz. You will see feedback on your correct and incorrect answers after you pass. At the end of the course, there is a final theory exam (online), covering what you have learned in all modules. Upon successful completion of your final exam with a final score of 80% or above, you will receive your Sports and Exercise Nutritional Advisor Certification issued by The Health Sciences Academy.

Yes, your certification allows you to brand yourself as a “Sports and Exercise Nutritional Advisor.” Because nutritionists, nutritional advisors and dietary consultants are currently not regulated in the UK, there are professional bodies and societies that they can choose to register with. We advise our graduates to register with The Nutrition Society and get professional insurance after completion of our programme.
